JAY-Z has added a new concert at Yankee Stadium on July 12th, following the sell-out of his July 10th and July 11th anniversary shows.

Peter Attia seems, in contrast, rather sensible. There's the fact that he went to medical school and practices as a doctor. His work has popularized the term healthspan-the years of one's life when physical and mental abilities are still sharp, before disability or disease settles in-and the goal to maximize this period.

I used to think I was over my startup failure. That was three years ago, ancient history, right? Yet every time I pitched a new idea to someone, my hands would shake. Every investor meeting felt like walking into that same room where I had to tell my team we were shutting down. My body remembered what my mind tried to forget. That's when Bruce Springsteen's words hit me like a freight train: "The past is never the past. It is always present. And you'd better reckon with it in your life and in your daily experience, or it will get you. It will get you really bad."

The Hotelier recently announced they'd celebrate a decade of their essential third album, 2016's Goodness, with a few shows this year, including NYC's Bowery Ballroom on June 25. Tickets to that sold out, so they've added a second NYC show the next night, on June 26 at Bowery Ballroom.

Last Tuesday, CBS editor-in-chief Bari Weiss announced that the longevity guru Dr. Peter Attia would be a contributor to the network, one of several high-profile hires to mark her takeover. Last Friday, in the latest congressional release of material related to the convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein, Attia's name appeared over 1,700 times, including in emails discussing Epstein's sex life. In the most widely shared email between the two, from 2016, Attia joked to Epstein that "pussy is, indeed, low carb."

'I was in a hospital. My heart's only beating like 25 percent, but as long as I stay focused and stay on the right path, everything will be all right.' It's a more optimist outlook than he gave in a recent IG Live, when he said doctors gave him months left to live. 'I thought... I could handle all the alcohol, I could handle all the Adderall, I could handle all the drugs, but I couldn't,' he said.

"It was a shock - at 46 I didn't think it would happen to me," Michael said. "I was lucky that there was someone with me in the car and lucky that I had handed over the driving to my manager Bryan Buckley. The fact that I blacked out could have been a disaster."

People created headlines from one quick, simple comment I made on a podcast not long ago, it's crazy. I've got to be careful about what I say about it. But I've got a lot to say about it and I've been just trying to figure out how and when, to go about really articulating it.

They should have known right off the bat that they had something special, as the opening night had Dr. John, Stevie Wonder and Johnny Winter performing to the likes of Mick Jagger and Carly Simon in the audience. Over the years, the 400-person capacity club became the place to be to see one's favorite artist up close or catch an up-and-coming unknown.

A MARTINEZ, HOST: As we finish this year, let's listen to some of the musicians we lost in 2025. Sam Moore was half the R&B powerhouse Sam & Dave. He sang on smashes such as "Hold On, I'm Comin'," "I Thank You" and this one. (SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "SOUL MAN") SAM AND DAVE: (Singing) I'm a soul man. I'm a soul man. MICHEL MARTIN, HOST: We also lost the guitarist on that song, Steve Cropper. He defined the sound of Memphis soul with the Stax Records House Band. He appeared on hits by Otis Redding, Booker T. & The M.G.'s and Wilson Pickett.

When I realized that two cherished New York comrades in the guitar world were also turning 70 within weeks of my crossing over that age threshold, it occurred to me that some sort of sonic ritual performance might be in order. Hence '70 IS THE NEW 70.' The intent is to create an immersive, compelling 70-minute ambient exploration that reflects this experience in all its wonder, exhilaration, dread, astonishment, and creeping surreality.

What interested me here was the idea of using my voice and new tools in service of expression, not instead of it. This project respects the artist's voice, the artist's choices, and the artist's ownership. I grew up watching my parents create wonderful dreams that were owned by other people. ElevenLabs makes it possible for anyone to be a creator and owner. That matters.

Fresh off an eventful Grammys for both Post Malone (who led the all-star Ozzy tribute) and Jelly Roll (who won three awards and got worked into a Trevor Noah joke about his and Teddy Swims' face tattoos), the two have announced a sequel to the Big Ass Stadium Tour that they first went on in 2025 surrounding Post Malone's headlining appearances at Coachella.

BROKEN SOCIAL SCENE / METRIC / STARSLast week, Broken Social Scene, Metric and Stars announced the " All the Feelings Tour" and they've added more shows since then, including a second NYC show at Brooklyn Paramount on July 31. HIEROGLYPHICSOakland hip hop greats Hieroglyphics - Casual, Del the Funkee Homosapien, Domino, DJ Toure, Pep Love, and Souls of Mischief - have announced spring tour dates which include an NYC show at Sony Hall on March 21. AMYL & THE SNIFFERS / L7 / PARTY DOZENAmyl & The Sniffers will be back in North America this summer for dates surrounding their appearance at Bonnaroo and they've just announced that opening will be punk/grunge legends L7 and Aussie sax/drums ragers Party Dozen.
